Series: Uncaged Love #1Category /Genre: Contemporary Romance, SportsReceived from: J.J. Knight (in exchange for an honest review)Recommended for: 16+ due to violenceGrammar/editing: A – near perfectThis is the first release in a serial story being meted out in the same fashion in which Stephen King originally released THE GREEN MILE. I was one of the intrepid fans stalking the book store every few weeks for that series and am just as eagerly chasing this series.This is a perfectly paced contemporary romance centered around a gym where Colt McClure, son of the famous traditional boxer “The Cure” McClure, is training in MMA. While intervening for Jo when she is being attacked on the streets near the gym, he sees a natural, raw talent in the struggling-to-survive girl and puts in a good word for her at the gym, securing a job for her. Sparks fly around the little hurricane that is Jo’s temper, lightning quick and dangerous.I cannot wait to find out what happens next. What is the story between Colt and Brittany? Can Colt and Jo embrace the desires that surround them in the gym and in each other?As a martial artist, myself, I was impressed with the descriptions of the fights as given. I felt myself moving to the instructions, facing off with friend and foe, and itching to resume my own workouts. I also remember, very well, the humiliation and pain of the punch that made it through my defense. Very well done, J.J. Knight! One of the best serials that I've ever read! I've had this in my e-library for a while but have been putting off reading it because I'm in the middle of so many other series right now. I was looking for something quick to read, that I could finish in one sitting tonight, so I figured I'd give it a shot. I am soooo glad that I did! This book was fantastic!It has passion, drama and angst galore. With a bad-boy MMA fighter, a drag queen best friend and a bitchy bombshell to round out the cast of characters, how could it be anything but wonderful!?! The only downside, kind of, is that I'm addicted now and will not be able to stop at book 1 tonight! Love it!
What do You think about Uncaged Love #1 (2014)?
ARC provided for honest review.Honestly... this is the first book I've read by JJ Knight... and I LOVED it! I could do without the cliffhanger but... where's the fun in that?! I love that Colt was painted as a pretty boy... Golden Boy. There's definitely something mysterious about Jo too. I like that both characters are flawed in their own way. The characters easily draw you in to want to route for them. I am still unsure what to think of Brittany. Something with her rubs me the wrong way but I can't wait to see what that turns out to be.This book will have you turning page after page from beginning to end. I can't wait to see what happens next!
